was pleasantly surprised with this anime, wasn't expecting much due to the rating but i enjoyed it a lot. Ended well for every character.

Too bad the VN isn't being translated I'd love to play that.

That was pretty cool, actually. Very enjoyable for a 12 episode eroge conversion :) hope the OVA is something fun as well.

Totally disappointed by Kirino, so easily swayed by petty words and broken memories. I'm glad the main male character wasn't broken and chose who he wanted to be with, but Riko was really rotten and I hated her, what an evil backstabber. I especially hated the piano scene.

I want to move and away and forget about losers like Haruhiko.

Like others have already mentioned, not much was expected from this anime. From the very start this seemed like a normal Love Triangle/Romance cliched anime and it kinda lived up to its expectations till the very end.

A decent watch IMO with a satisfying ending with absolutely no loose ends. I never could buy the plot; it was the romance angle which kept me going on. I mean, a final gift from a dying mother which fulfills any one wish of the townsfolk, please.

Also, I'm glad that Riko wasn't Haruhiko's real sister; a badly done incest is no fun to watch IMO. :D

This is a great example of a perfectly normal romance anime. As for the genre it did nothing special but noting bad either, so I really enjoyed the whole ride, predictable but none the less a great story. I think Riko did the right thing because had she not have sent the raindow gift he wouldn't have had a reason to erase the gift ability and be with Riko. 9/10

I Would Really Like To Give It A 10 But It Can Be Better Without The Gift Thing TBH. 7/10. Also I Thought It Will Ended An Unhappy Ending But I Was Wrong. :)

Wow this Anime is exactly like Da Capo in so many ways. I really enjoyed this serie and I think the ending was alright, so glad to hear Kirino finish the piano song :D

Damn, why do MCs always pick wrong girl xD At least there was nice, conclusive ending.

It wasn't really best harem (I wouldn't even call it harem actually) I watched. Just... average. 5/10 fits perfectly.

I enjoyed it. I'm really glad that Riko finally ended with Haruhiko.
Why you all hating Riko? I think that she was MUCH MORE fair, mature and generally better in any aspect. If she was in love with Haruhiko, then why she not confessed to him? She had her time.
Riko >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> all other.
Dub = fake crap. Always.

it was a good series, a bit too dramatic at some points...if it'd have been a bit more laid back it would've gotten a higher score from me...otherwise now i'm oscillating between a 6 and a 7, but i'm gonna give it 7 because it was quite enjoyable :)

7/10 and good ending!

Maaaan, screw Haruhiko.
Like, "Ooooo, sorry I cut the cup telephone, but play the piano so I can make up for it". Kinda.
Dude, please. Just like you don't owe Kirino anything, she doesn't owe you anything either.
I wish she would have said no, found the courage to play her piece all the way through on her own, then invited everyone to listen expect Haruhiko and Riko. You wanted to cut strings back then? Let's cut some strings. And straight up, just tying strings back together is messy; go get a new string and start anew, because the old string is already weaker. I dunno. I mean, in one way, I'm glad they patched that up, but on the other hand, feisty Kirino was a good Kirino.

I'm disappointed that at the beginning, they made it seem like Haruhiko was going to not be your average MC. Lies for the most part.

Enjoy your anime! | Witch Cafe Wisteria

I like this better than Da Capo. Most of the characters are likeable too. Riko is so pretty, and Haruhiko is a cool dude. 7/10

Final episode wrapped things well. Haruhiko x Riko is still the best!

6/10
